C

I was looking through my fishes for a carp and came across this 'csuka', which translates to pike in English.  Below, is a 'ponty' which translates to carp in English.

also known as 'Chambak', on the left is a magnolia and at bottom a thistle with the pretty name of Carline

    The names for types of fish in other languages are really interesting. My C stamp is here: https://envelope100.blogspot.com/2026/02/c-is-for-culidad-turistica.html

    Carline is pretty enough to be used as a girls name. Its a beautiful illustration.

      Interesting, the French influence I guess, for me a new one to add to flora female names.

    Hungary has some nice animal stamps. I thought Carline sounded like a name for a person too!
